WrestleMania 37, 38 & 39’s locations and dates have all been revealed by WWE.

During a creative (if surreal) promotional video, Triple H, Stephanie McMahon, Roman Reigns, Sasha Banks, and John Cena all helped announce the news regrading where and when the next three ‘Manias will be going down.

This year’s ‘Mania 37 has been moved from the original date of March 28 and is set to be yet another two-night affair, airing on April 10 & 11, with WWE seemingly doubling down on last year’s pirate-themed Show of Shows. Also, the comapny will finally be bringing their showpiece event to Tampa, Florida’s Raymond James Stadium after pulling the show due to the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020.

WrestleMania 38 will then arrive in Arlington, Texas’ AT&T Stadium on April 3, 2022. This stadium is obviously famous for being the location where WWE reportedly broke their attendance record at WrestleMania 32, with a whopping 101,000 fans in attendance.

And finally, ‘Mania 39 will take place inside of Los Angels’ SoFi Stadium on April 2, 2023. As you’ll likely remember, this ‘WrestleMania Goes Hollywood’ event was initially set to go down at ‘Mania 37. However, it’s clear that those plans have been seriously effected by the current global situation and WWE’s reaction to it.

On top of all this, it appears that the company will be trying to reintroduce fans to their arenas at this year’s event, with WWE’s official press release on the news stating that they “will announce ticket availability and safety protocols for WrestleMania 37 in the coming weeks.”

For now, though, let’s all just celebrate the fact that we won’t have to endure 9 hours of ‘Mania content in one single sitting…in 2021, at least.

Former NXT Women’s Champion Sasha Banks was interviewed by Mike Jones of DC101 ahead of tomorrow’s WrestleMania. You can check out some highlights below, and the full interview at this link.

The fans’ excitement about the Divas Championship match:

“Just the simple fact of how many people are talking about our match at Wrestlemania. When have you ever been so excited to see a Divas match? When? NEVER! The fact that we’re changing the game and having so many fans respect us and respect our work, and it’s not even that we’re females. They treat us like we’re equal. We’re just going to have a great match…period.”

Being a part of Wrestlemania for the first time:

“Two years ago I got to be a part of Triple H’s entrance. I remember going out there and I was freaking out. I saw a sea of fans and thought it was awesome but I can’t wait to have my own moment. Now, two years later and here I am, and what a journey it’s been. From starting in the independent scene to NXT to now, it’s just been an absolutely amazing journey and I can’t wait for the future.”

Moving from NXT to WWE:

“At the time I was watching and I didn’t want to be brought up, because I didn’t want to have a one minute match. I was going every night, having 20 minutematches at live events and I didn’t want to be on RAW or Smackdown if this is the case. So when we got called up and they said we were going to have a Divas Revolution because fans wanted to see more of the women and they want to be respected, I thought, “hell yeah, I’m part of history now!”

Seeing herself on banners at AT&T Stadium:

“I went there yesterday and I broke down when I saw our 60′ picture and the women were right in the middle. I couldn’t believe that! It wasn’t Triple H in the middle, it wasn’t Brock Lesnar, it wasn’t Kevin Owens, it wasn’t John Cena, it was the women and I was like “wow, this is insane!”
